Hi abivaz2000,
The 2-for-1 offer is not available for traveling in July. I would recommend to consider a 3-day Swiss Saver Flexi Pass and use the free travel days on July 15, 17 and 18. The purchase options (including online) and all details such as shipping can be found on the Swiss Flexi Pass page if you select your country and desired pass type from the dropdown lists. There may be travel agencies selling Swiss Travel System products in Milan, but I don’t know where. You need the pass for the 2 adults, and the children will indeed travel along for free everywhere with the Swiss Family Card.
Even though the pass will be expired by the 19th, you’ll still be able to reach the airport for free with the Geneva Transport Card, as you can read here.
Have fun!

The Swiss Family Card is a separate ticket that you can order along for free. If the reseller isn’t able to provide it, you can get it for free at any Swiss rail station upon showing your rail pass and passports.

Thank you for replying back. By looking at the website the Swiss saver flexi pass including shipping for us to Duabi would be $472.52 for 3 days (15,17 and 18) but on 16th we would like to take the round trip to Mt. Pilatus will we get any disocunt on the boat and cog wheel if we take the Swiss family card along with the saver pass? I assume u would have to pay for making the reservation on the golden pass train right? On 19th we are traveling to Geneva airport from Montreux so what exactly is the free days option which we could cover in that by taking the 3 days flexi saver pass? If we have have the flexi saver pass we can get the swiss family card for free from any Swiss train station right? and the benefit of the Swiss family card is that children can travel free right? Sorry to bother you with these silly questions but I`m not able to follow the rail passes properly. Thank you for your patience

Hello abivaz! A 50% discount applies on non-free travel days, such as your trip to Pilatus on July 16. The pass expires after the last free travel day. So if you use it as Arno proposed, there will be no discounts for the trip Montreux-Geneva (if you travel only within Geneva, you can use the Geneva Transport Card Arno mentioned).
Yes, the Swiss Family Card allows children under 16 to travel along for free wherever you go as long as the Swiss Flexi Pass is valid. Please visit the Swiss Flexi Pass page for further details.
